24 Best Bakeries in Boulder

“We got the Herbs de Provence cake for our small wedding and it was amazing! I was the only GF one of our group but everyone loved it. Highly recommend if you want a delicious GF cake!“

“Delicious, light, crispy crackers! Full of flavor. Fresh and addictive. Can’t stop eating them!“

“Lately it feels like getting food out just isn’t worth the dollars. Places want to give less and less while charging more. But here is an exception. I’m never disappointed when I come here and order onigiri or a pastry and a latte. Great quality. Thank you, Dry Storage.“

“I am not following a gluten free diet and I LOVE bread. Hävenly is my go-to for the best bread in CO hands down! I cannot even tell it is gluten free, the flavors are so rich and delicious!“

“This was hands down the best sourdough and pastry that I have everrrr had in my life. The loafs are beautiful you almost don’t want to cut into them. The crust is so perfectly crunchy and the inside is absolutely divine, I almost cried. So fluffy, absolute perfect texture. 10/10 spongeness. Same with the pastry. I never want to eat any other bread other than this now and my friend that doesn’t even eat bread was almost in tears as well. To top it off- my stomach didn’t feel bad after eating multiple pieces, really good quality. So stoked about finally going into this spot. Can’t say enough good things.“

“Every year I send my son a box of cupcakes for his birthday. This year the driver left them out on a college stoop and surprise surprise they disappeared. I contacted the store and was thrilled with the service I received!! Josh, I am beyond impressed with how they handled this. They sent out a second order and mom son did get them this time and was thrilled. I was expecting a hassle and instead they made it right within an hour or so. Thank you so much. This is not our first time ordering with them and it certainly will not be our last thank you so much!“

“Top shelf! Only one of two places that gets this ranking in my local area. An absolute favorite and I wish I could go more often. When I'm available - have time to drive to Boulder - is usually on the weekend and it's very busy - but damn - it really is worth it.“

“Delicioso! Very affordable and huge selection!“

“The most fabulous coffee and morning goodies in the heart of Boulder. 💕 Complete with the daily horoscope and dog biscuits.“

“Amazing products for people with food allergies that taste fantastic!My son has extensive food allergies. He is allergic to wheat, eggs and milk to name a few. I was so lucky to find Welcome Gluten-Free Bakery. The James Granite cake from their menu has provided the chocolate/chocolate cake that he requests for his birthday. He was so excited and fully enjoyed it.They were also able to create chocolate cookies specific to his dietary requirements. He loves the cookies as well.I highly recommend the company and their products!“

“OMG! Everything was amazing! Fresh salads, healthy options and quality was A+...“

“These people are SUPER nice and accommodating. Showed up early for my appointment and they worked me right in. Super friendly and helpful. Will definitely haul any load of theirs that hits the board. Overnight parking is available on the street.Please drivers, treat them with respect so they don't turn into typical shippers who treat us like excrement.“

“the staff are quite amazing, as are their tasty creations. I spent several years in the US Army, and your team cooperates on a superior level. Coffee taste wonderful, perhaps having cocoa, cinnamon and nutmeg available to customize the ☕. Presenting and selling local art would be a nice touch, as would newspapers and travel magazines. Muchas gracias, ustedes tiene un Gran cafe y panaderia.“

“Wonderful food. Great service“

“Absolutely love the bison 🦬 pastie. The 🦃 Rueben & Cobb salad are other good choices. The ☕️ is tasty. I highly recommend Shamane’s Bakery.“

“Always the best food and baked goods!!! Especially the scones...“

“I went to Boxcar looking for a good cup of coffee. I’ve searched maps, Yelp, Google, and TikTok for places where the beans aren’t burnt or over-roasted. I wanted a welcoming spot with friendly baristas who take the time to help.

It’s not Pergamino in Colombia, where customer service is next level because livelihoods depend on it and employees are given time to train and connect—but this is the closest I’ve found. Friendly, welcoming, knowledgeable staff who explain their beans and give great recommendations.

I was able to drink my coffee black—something most places don’t allow because their beans are over-processed and burnt—and it was delicious. Definitely coming back.

I can’t wait to go when it’s a bit slower and pick the baristas' brains even more.“

“The brioche gluten free bread is a game changer for me. I have celiac and this GF brioche is so good and soft. It is the first time is 4 years that I've "enjoyed" a good sandwich. Thank you!

Dietary restrictions: GF Brioche is amazing!“

“Sipping dark chocolate. So good!“

“Great espresso and super friendly staff, I love the variety of beans they offer. I don’t consider myself a coffee snob but I feel like each of their roasts has a unique flavor. I also love that they offer you some sparkling water for free when you order a plain espresso shot.“

“I love Spruce Cafe! They have everything Spruce Confections has but without the Pearl Street traffic. Super cute and modern interior. Friendly baristas :)“

“Great place with great people!! The food was absolutely some of the best lunch food you can get in Boulder.“

“One of my favorite coffee shops in town! Kind baristas, a wide selection of freshly made pastries, drinkable espresso, interesting seasonal drinks. My favorites are the ham and cheese croissant and the refillable drip coffee. I hop around the menu quite a bit too, and I’ve always enjoyed what I’ve ordered.

(The only downside is the lack of places to charge electronics)“
